Showcasing products that provide significant technical advancement in the art and science of lighting, the X Series Modular Downlighting System has been accepted into the 2024 Illuminating Engineering Society’s (IES) Progress Report for its uniqueness, innovation, and significance to the lighting industry.
Â
The X Series 2-inch downlight’s modular design (housing, module, and trim) features the industry’s first LED light engine module integrated with a DALI-2 driver for the rapidly growing Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) lighting control protocol.
Â
A DALI Config App allows simple DALI setup and reading without power and stores original settings for device upgrades, changes, or replacement using NFC cloning.
Â
The downlights’ cleverly engineered Cross Beam Total Internal Reflection (TIR) Optics maximize light efficacy (up to 105 lm/W) while minimizing glare and ensuring no cutoff when combined with a pinhole trim. To learn more about the benefits of the optics, watch the video below.
Â
The versatility of the modular design includes tool-less, field-interchangeable optics, modules, and trims, allowing for simple serviceability, easy design changes, and onsite flexibility to meet specific application needs. The X Series is also the first truly serviceable 2-inch downlight with integrated drivers in the modules versus the housing, so modules, equipped with quick connects, can be easily swapped out with below ceiling access.
Â
The yearly mission of the IES Progress Committee is to keep in touch with developments in the art and science of lighting throughout the world and prepare a yearly report of achievements for the Society.
